I should begin by saying that I'm on Verizon. I live in a "marginal" reception area. I've had an Samsung Galaxy S3 since mid April. I have reception issues since day one. My phone is dead stock 4.1.2, rooted. I am posting here because the information on this site is the only one that has gone into depth explaining the actual process of cell connection. I can't say I understood much of it, but I get that there are enough folks here that do, so I might get an answer to my dilemma. Until July 9th I can exchnge my phone for another. As other folks have said, "I love my S3 except when I make calls".

 

My question is, is there enough change in the hardware of the S4, that I can expect reception to be improved over that of the S3?

 

Thanks for helping a 4G pilgram out.

 

I have sprint and have both devices

The sgs3 has worse call quality but holds on to calls better, so less drops

The sgs4 has better call quality, but can't really hold on to calls as well resulting in a lot more dropped calls

I also notice my sgs4 will randomly lose data signal and take minutes to find one again while my sgs3 holds on and doesn't lose data. In the rare instance it does, it finds the data connection again within 10 seconds

Anyone having bluetooth issues? Mine won't stay connected to the head unit in my car. My GS3 worked fine.

Nope, mine works better with the sgs4 than the sgs3. I have the jawbone icon hd
